I’m aware of that. But, as a lesbian, I like seeing gay and lesbian relationships represented, and Shelly is one of my favorite characters. Just because love doesn’t nessecerily equal sex doesn’t mean I can’t WANT it to equal sex.

In my workplace (where some 30 odd people spend 40-56 hours a week in close proximity, with every race, gender, and sexuality present) if you talk to anyone for more than 5 minutes, someone starts rumors of the two of you hooking up.
